They All Deeply Regretted It After I Became Indifferent - They All Deeply Regretted It After I Became Indifferent chapter 32

Lin Mo left the inn, heading straight for the Ding residence.

When the Ding household’s servants tried to stop him, he didn’t have the patience to wait for them to send a message inside.

With a swift movement, he bypassed the guards.

Following the reminder from the Liuli Sword, he walked towards the place within the mansion where the yin energy was the thickest.

Eventually, he arrived at an underground chamber.

“Shadowbinding Array!”

Lin Mo immediately recognized the issue with this underground chamber.

At the center of the chamber, there was an ice coffin, within which lay a female corpse.

Lin Mo had his answer; this must be the daughter of Old Master Ding.

Just then, an anomaly occurred; the female corpse suddenly opened her eyes and leaped at Lin Mo.

“Corpse demon.”

Lin Mo was not perturbed. He deftly sidestepped the corpse’s attack and, with one hand, grasped her neck, lifting her high.

“I know you can speak. Tell me, where are my junior sisters?”

“Ugh… Ugh!” The corpse let out a low growl, expressing her dissatisfaction: You’re choking me, how can I speak?

Lin Mo, oblivious to the problem, tightened his grip: “Speak now, or I’ll turn you into a headless corpse!”

“Immortal, please stop, do not harm the young lady!” At that moment, Ding, the merchant, hurried to Lin Mo’s side, pleading anxiously, “I… I know where your junior sisters are.”

Only then did Lin Mo loosen his grip, casually dropping the corpse to the ground, and turned a cold gaze towards Ding.

“Dad, this man is terribly rude!” The corpse demon complained to Ding, “I was in the midst of my purification, and this man barged in, choking me, demanding I speak. Isn’t this troubling a ghost?”

Ding swallowed hard, trying to console her, “Don’t be afraid, your father is here…”

He was also frustrated. Weren’t these junior sisters supposed to have sneaked out on their own?

How did it come to fall on his head so suddenly?

“Immortal, your junior sisters broke into my Ding residence last night and were taken away by Tang Da.”

“Tang Da?”

“The same man who had a conflict with your junior sisters the day before yesterday.”

Lin Mo now realized who he was talking about.

“Where did he take them?” Lin Mo asked with a stern face.

“They were probably taken to the ‘Night Raid’ organization, to be auctioned off as goods,” said Old Master Ding.

“‘Night Raid’? What organization is that?” There was no information about this organization in the original host’s memory.

That Tang fellow had escaped using a quality talisman; Lin Mo knew that the forces behind him were not simple.

“I don’t really know much, only that they are involved in underground human trafficking in Daliang City.”

Human trafficking…

This ‘Night Ghost’ acted no differently from the behavior of demonic cultivators.

It was likely an organization created by a group of demonic cultivators.

“Then who set up this ‘Shadowbinding Array’ for you?”

The array was ingeniously arranged, and Lin Mo did not believe that Old Master Ding, a mere mortal, could have set it up.

“Ah, this was also arranged by the ‘Night Raid’ I hired at a great expense,” said Old Master Ding.

Lin Mo looked at the zombie ghost beside Old Master Ding and said softly, “Humans and ghosts walk different paths. By turning your daughter into a zombie ghost, you’ve harmed her!”

Upon hearing this, Old Master Ding’s tone suddenly became agitated, “Immortal, my daughter and I have always been kind-hearted, never committing any heinous acts, always charitable and benevolent. Yet, my daughter met with such misfortune!”

“That day, my daughter secretly met with a destitute scoundrel surnamed Ai. That young master lured my daughter to the back mountain, intending to commit unspeakable acts. But they encountered robbers along the way, and that scoundrel surnamed Ai ran away, leaving my daughter to suffer a horrific death at the hands of those robbers. I have always been charitable and virtuous, why should such misfortune befall me?”

Lin Mo ignored Old Master Ding’s words and looked at the zombie ghost, “Don’t tell me you were attracted by the talent of that surnamed Ai, and that’s why you met with him secretly. After being abandoned, did resentment grow in your heart, leading you to target talented young masters?”

Caught off guard by the revelation, the zombie ghost’s face showed shock, “How do you know all this…”

“Did you kill that surnamed Ai?”

“No, since that day, he has already left Daliang City. I can’t find him.”

“Haha!” Lin Mo found it amusing, “So you’ve directed your anger at him towards others?”

“Perhaps among the young masters you killed, there were indeed scoundrels, but were they all devoid of good people?”

“The way you’re acting, in my eyes, is no different from those robbers who violated you.”

“Do I deserve such punishment?” the zombie ghost roared.

“You do!” Lin Mo said with a smile, “Who asked you to secretly meet with that young master without knowing how to protect yourself? Your father raised you all these years, is this how you repay him?”

“Let me tell you this, after your death, your father kept you at home. He has already been invaded by the yin energy, and he doesn’t have many years left to live.”

Hearing this, the zombie ghost looked at Old Master Ding, who, not surprisingly, spoke, “Dad, did you know all this?”

Old Master Ding gave a bitter smile, “I’m already old, and don’t have many years left. As long as you’re happy, I support you…”

“Stop!” Lin Mo interrupted the tragic scene from continuing.

He didn’t have time for this,

“I forgot to tell you, yesterday at Jiang Yue Tower, I won the title of the leading scholar.”

Lin Mo spread his hands.

“Now, I’m right in front of you. Why don’t you try to harm me?”

The zombie ghost remained indifferent. She wasn’t foolish; it was clear she was no match for the man before her. To act would be to die.

Lin Mo saw through her thoughts, “That’s right, just as you thought. That surnamed Ai was wrong. If he hadn’t run away at that time, should he have stayed and died with you?”

The zombie ghost stood frozen.

A single phrase awakened her from her dream.

“In your next life, pay more attention to those who truly care for you. Don’t let love cloud your judgment.”

That’s what Lin Mo said…

Soon after, the system began to prompt, gaining regret value.

Watching the zombie ghost deeply self-reflect, Lin Mo felt gratified.

Only when there were no more prompts for regret value did he slowly walk behind the zombie ghost.

A surge of spiritual energy burst forth from the fingertips, and the corpse demon immediately dissolved into pus and began to rot.

Ding Yuanwai stood frozen in place, and when he finally came to his senses, he couldn’t accept the reality and fell down as if dead.

Lin Mo felt nothing, and calmly walked out of the Ding residence.

A doting mother spoils her son, a doting father spoils his daughter.

Oh, people really shouldn’t let themselves be too idle.

Just like Ding Yuanwai’s daughter—if her schedule were filled to the brim, how would she have the time to think about sneaking off for a tryst?

And he was never one to be soft-hearted. Ding Yuanwai’s daughter had indeed harmed many people. Could it be that just because her own plight was pitiful, she should be let go?

That was naturally impossible.

From noble mtl dot nete

However, Lin Mo hadn’t been completely ruthless.

He didn’t let Ding Yuanwai’s daughter’s soul scatter to the winds; he only dispersed one soul and two spirits of that corpse demon, ensuring that in her next life, she would become but a simpleton.

Stepping out of the Ding residence, Lin Mo followed the clues and began searching for the location of the ‘Night Raid’ organization’s human auction.

Fortunately, Da Liang City also had a ‘Treasure Pavilion’. After inquiring with the manager of this side’s ‘Treasure Pavilion’,

Lin Mo, following the guidance, finally found the auction site.
